Use alt text. Help make your toots more accessible and the Fediverse more inclusive. Every time you do it, it makes a difference for someone.

Something that's happening more and more often:
1) I see an image on Mastodon that has text in it...
2) ...but because of image preview/cropping, I can only see part of it.
3) So I hover my mouse over it to get the alt text...
4) ...but it doesn't have any!
5) So I say, "Screw it, if it wasn't worth your time and effort, it's not worth mine", and go on to the next post.
If you want *sighed users* to read your text images... put in alt text!
